I don't get this wehole thing. We used to screw the the NYS police who would hide out with theor speed traps on I-81. We as a group would buzz them at 170+ mph. When they would chase us, we would split up and circle back on them. Eventually they stopped setting up their speed traps in that section because they knew we would have them chasing vapor trails.

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-11
Yoshimura Pipe
Lectron Flat slide carbs (44mm)
Shaved head to get 12:1 compression.

Top speed 182mph

You don't say how old you were when you pulled this stunt, but such action is simply arrogant and stupid.

I've been riding bikes off-and-on since 1969 and have rec'd one speeding ticket (70 on a 55 highway) when I was in high school.

Idiots think their bikes are jet fighters and try to "fly" them as fast as they can go, without regard for anyone or anything else.

Most traffic laws are intended to protect the public from ignorant people. No law can protect the public from idiots.

For any Christians amongst this blog, we need to recall this: "13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: As free, and not using your liberty for a cloak of maliciousness, but as the servants of God. Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king." (1 Peter 2:13 - 17)

I have a ZX12R, and I still give in to the guilty pleasure of an 80 or 90 mph wheelie pass around some slowpoke, and I'm almost 50 years old now. But I never do any "ridin dirty" without leathers, boots and full coverage helmet. I want all my pieces in one bag.

Oh, and I have one speeding ticket in my whole driving career, and that was for going 100+ in my truck. I had just gotten it, and wanted to see if the motor really shuts off at 100. It does.

We used to do the same/similar thing! They would set up on overpasses, then try to get on the freeway as we were NOT slowing down. On an interstate with few cars that late at night, we always won.
